Brachytherapy Seed Placement by Robotic Bronchoscopy with Cone-Beam CT Guidance for Peripheral Lung Cancer: A Human Cadaveric Feasibility Pilot.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys
January 2025
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Purpose: This study evaluates the feasibility of utilizing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with cone beam computed tomography (RB-CBCT) platform to perform low-dose-rate brachytherapy implants (LDR-BT) in a mechanically ventilated human cadaveric model. Post-implant dosimetry was compared to standard stereotactic body radiation therapy plans (SBRT).
Materials And Methods: The RB-CBCT platform was used to place inert LDR-BT seeds into mechanically ventilated human cadavers with percutaneously injected pseudotumors.

Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) is an inflammatory autoimmune process caused by onconeural antibodies directed against cerebellar Purkinje cells. In most cases, prognosis is poor as disease progression leads to pancerebellar dysfunction and permanent neurological damage. Through this case report, we aim to highlight the clinical presentation, diagnostic process, and therapeutic implications associated with PCD secondary to SCLC.

Introduction: Aorto-bronchial or aorto-pulmonary fistulas (ABPF) are a rare but life-threatening complication following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). This narrative review aims to provide an overview of the current trends and available evidence on ABPF following TEVAR, evaluating risk factors, diagnostic approaches, and possible preventive and therapeutic strategies.
Methods: Relevant publications on post-TEVAR ABPF were selected through a literature search on PubMed.
EBUS-guided Iodine-125 seed implantation in lymph node as a novel therapy for MCAO: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.
Rationale: We report here a case of using iodine-125 (125I) seed implantation via endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) in the treatment of malignant central airway obstruction (MCAO) in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma.
Patient Concerns: The patient still experienced MCAO after conventional bronchoscopic interventional therapy.
Diagnoses: The patient was diagnosed as lung adenocarcinoma stage IV (T4N2M1a).
Short-term and long-term outcomes of lung transplantation from marginal donors: a single-center retrospective study.

December 2024
Department of Thoracic Surgery, The Affiliated Wuxi People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Wuxi, China.
Background: To expand the donor pool, medical centers worldwide are applying marginal donor lungs in clinical settings. We carried out this research to reveal the short-term and long-term outcomes of marginal lung donor transplantation.
Methods: We performed retrospective research using data from patients who underwent lung transplantation (LT) in The Affiliated Wuxi People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Jiangsu Province, China, between 2018 and 2022 to compare the short-term and long-term outcomes of standard donors and marginal donors.
